Rip to the dead may they rest in the arms of the Almighty forever amen

Even the helicopters pilot needs to be given a medal of honour if he survived for saving nine lives out of 12. Baba God really worked his miracles

What a sad way to end: flying in d sky n dying in d water.

Sad

this is serious.

Olorun o, irin ajo t'a ma rin t'ani pada wa'le, ma je ka rin. F'orun ke awon to ti ku.

Eya.. May their souls rest in peace. Amen.. So they were comin from an oil rig chai... Na so oil money don go be dat ooo.... Anyways, vacancy loading

I wonder if they'll also bring out the helicopter to determine what caused the crash as well, rip to the dead though

RIP to the dead.

You really had to post photos of the dead?! What's wrong with you people?

rip to the dead

How like a candle flame the lives are blown away, may their souls rest in peace, amen.

Hmmm Oil workers from Escravos. Na Chevron workers be that o.

That moment when u have spent abt 1month at an Oil field. Away from ur children ur wife, friends & co. U have already planned how u give ur wife or galfriend a treat in d bedroom & stuffs like that u know....As u are busy fantasicing hoping to land in 5mins, so all of a sudden d pilot shouts "mayday-mayday, adopt d brace position and get ready for impact!" and seconds later.......Hmmm.

Trust me I know how things like these play out. I narrowly escaped one offshore of Escravos in 2007. The first things that came my mind at dat dying moment were my mom and d money I Had in my account.

RIP departed fellows.
